Did I reincarnate as a villainess in an otome game?

Chapter 29

UPDATE: Since I forgot to upload the latest chapter last week since I have to study for our exams and now exams is finally over and here we are today!

"Does Lady Rachel want to—?"

"Ah, Graciella, wait for me!"

Another day went by. We tried to talk to her about it because we knew she had been avoiding us, but she refused to listen."

"Why are you avoiding us, Lady Rachel?"

"Excuse me, what?"

She would either act stupid or

"Woah, look at the time, Graciella must've been waiting for me"

She will use excuses one after another. The worst part is a certain lady sneering at us in the background, especially to Ms. Rosetta.

We would hear Lady Graciella waving her fan in front of us and saying, "Rachel is my 'friend' you guys should give It up fufufu." I genuinely believed that Lady Rachel could find happiness by making new friends.

Perhaps I was mistaken.

This overconfident woman brainwashed her.

At the lounge, the rest of the group relaxed.

Leon exclaimed angrily, holding his handkerchief, "Ahh Rachel is ignoring me. It makes me feel so lonely."

Syd responded, looking down, "I-Sister has never ignored me before, this is the first." Another boy came up and shouted at the two boys while pointing at the unhappy boy with cloudy eyes."

"If your own fiancé ignored you, how would that make you feel?"

He was met with a blank expression from Leon as he shrugged, "Well, she always ignores you, nothing new there."

The Crown Prince sulked in the corner, "My friend, I am deeply hurt by your comment."

I sighed heavily, wondering what we had done these past few days for her to treat us like this.

"Give her space. If she returns, she will. If she doesn't, then," Ms. Rosetta trailed off.

"If she's the one who pushed me or not, You all can verify and confirm"

The crown prince stood up and said, "Are we back on this subject again?

"N-no! That's not what I mean, I am just convinced that it was her! I am the victim here," sputtered Rosetta, who was visibly shaken.

We all knew that, but we also know that Lady Rachel wouldn't try to push her. She's not that kind of person.

Philip arrived, grinning broadly and clutching chocolate bars in his hand, we all kept our mouths tightly shut and avoided talking about it.

He sat down next to the table and questioned, "Oh? What's with the somber atmosphere? Did something happen?"

Leon screamed as he flung up his arms to embrace the young fellow with white hair, "Phil! I missed you, it's been a week! You should spend more time with me!"

Philip turned to face the group and yelled back, "Don't come anywhere near me, you weirdo!"

He asked, "Lady Rachel is?"

What a very foolish question of him. The group has changed since his return, so it wasn't the same.

Syd whispered to him, "That...she has been avoiding us recently."

"Really?"

"We need to speak with Rachel, so Phil, please help us~"

"Ha? That's your problem! Maybe you did something to her that made her ignore you, she was fine when we talked earlier!"

I questioned, "You talked to her?" and he nodded.

The crown prince said, "She talked to you?," and Philip once again nodded.

Lifting the chocolate bars he had earlier, he remarked, "She even gave me free chocolates."

We all turned our heads away, and I knew that we were thinking the same thing. "She's purposefully avoiding us,"

But why?

Did we do something to her?
